Am I late... HT
Did you guys read the article in the most recent Honda Tuning. The report about the Hasport mounts and the K20 swap. It has a really nice step by step that outlines the entire swap and even provides problems and solutions. I am inspired.... anybody got a K20 I can have?

Rep Power: 0 Props to HASport for doing the project (and a big thanks to Brian for being extremely polite and helpful to me the few times I've called him up). I've seen several threads about the "K20 Swap DIY in HT" and how people think it's a step-by-step manual. Truth is, the article doesn't mention a lot of import things you need to know to actually do this project. And you wouldn't expect it to, either. Considering that the swap wasn't finished yet when the Honda Tuning crew came in to do the article. Plus HASport gets paid to sell motor mounts, not to give free motor swap advice through a magazine.
There are just so many issues you need to be concerned with (e.g. connectors for the O2 sensor and radiator fan not present on the Civic chassis wiring harness), that you better get yourself a competent shop to do this project. A lot of you guys have IM'd me over the past few months asking various questions, and I'm happy to provide whatever information I have. But there are still a lot of nuts-and-bolts stuff that I am not 100% sure about, that only Trevor and Jerry from ImportBuilders would know.
So bottom line - if you are going to do this project, reading over a magazine article will give you a very broad general glossing over of what you need to do. But get a competent mechanic / shop to make sure everything goes smoothly and correctly.
